Focused, Determined, Dedicated and Compassionate Attorney

I experienced an auto-immune response in 2015 from the flu vaccine and became very ill. I was at a loss at what to do until I was introduced to Carol Gallagher. Carol listened empathetically to me and agreed to take on my very complicated and challenging case. She has always responded quickly to my e...mails and phone messages and has tirelessly guided me through this often confusing and stressful process. I have always found Carol to be focused, determined and extremely dedicated to helping me. Her excellent knowledge of the law, coupled with the manner in which she has meticulously prepared my case is unparalleled.

Physical injury

Physical injury, I called Carol presented her with the facts , she decided to take the case and was with me all the steps of the way. If I needed her to ask questions she would be there for me at any given time. I could text her and get an answer without having to wait or keep calling. Carol subm...itted my case and won. It took some time but it was worth it. I would highly recommend Carol Gallagher!

beyond happy

My experience with Ms. Gallagher was wonderful, she is very detail oriented and knowledgeable in her field of practice with vaccine law. She answered all of my questions and gave sound knowledgeable facts to back up her reasoning and methods for proceeding with my case. She works hard for her clien...ts to make sure that they get everything that they deserve and she does not settle for anything less. With vaccine law there is a lot of paperwork so make sure you are always keeping a copy of everything that you have and that you send!

Absolutely terrific!

When I contracted Guillain-Barré Syndrome after receiving the flu vaccine one of my friends, who is a very well-respected lawyer in my state, informed me about the Federal Vaccine Fund. After consulting with several of his colleagues regarding whom I should contact for legal representation he provid...ed me with Carol Gallagher’s name. I contacted Carol and was immediately impressed with her approachability and willingness to listen. As my court case proceeded I was soon also impressed with her legal expertise. Carol handled each step through the court system with the utmost confidence and carefully explained all the legal terminology such that I felt very comfortable with all the decisions that were being made. The outcome of my case was far beyond my expectations and clearly it was Carol who made this happen. She never gave up, she never stopped fighting on my behalf, and most importantly she never stopped caring about me as a person.

Wonderful Attorney

November 2002 was going to be the start of a new beginning for me and my husband. He had retired on October 31st after 32 years with the city fire department and Chief for the past 16 years. He was ready for a change and we were looking forward to a new slower paced, relaxed life!!! Not to be!! I re...ceived my annual flu shot on October 30th and 12 days later I suffered with a horrible back ache, I went to work as usual, but during the night I woke up with both feet asleep, and within hours I lost all feeling from my waist down, I fell and put a deep gash in my knee and broke 2 toes, but did not feel a thing!!! I was in the hospital for nearly a month, and had several doctors and every test imaginable, but no one really knew what was wrong with me. I was finally diagnosed with Transverse Myelitis about 2 years later and my doctor believed that the flu shot was what caused me to contact TM.  A friend's husband told me about Atty Carol Gallagher and suggested I call her. I had kept good medical records and decided to call her, I didn't have anything to lose, but figured it would not do any good. Boy, was I wrong!!! Carol was very interested and wanted to take my case. She worked and kept me updated on a regular basis, and many months later a settlement was reached, satisfactory to me. I am so grateful to Atty Gallagher for all she has done for me, and I would recommend her services to anyone, she is a fighter!! I gained a good friend as well as a nice settlement.  Linda.G.   Very satisfied client
